Q2 FY 13 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

§  Significant improvement in GRM on a trailing quarter basis providing the positive impact on PBDIT (GRM of $ 9.5/bbl vs $ 7.6/bbl)
§  Weaker margins in petrochemicals and refining and lower oil & gas production resulting in decline in profits on Y-o-Y basis

§  Net profit for 1H FY13 declined due to lower GRM of $ 8.5/bbl (vs $ 10.2/bbl), lower oil & gas production and margin pressure in petrochemicals

§  Lower GRM ($ 8.5/bbl vs $ 10.2/bbl) partly offset by higher volumes impacting refining EBIT – EBIT margin further impacted due to base effect
§  Petrochemicals EBIT margin impacted by sharp decline in polyester chain deltas and weaker PP delta
§  Production decline resulting in lower EBIT for the upstream business

§  Strong recovery in refining margins leading higher EBIT on a sequential quarter basis
§  1H FY13 EBIT declined on account of lower contribution from all businesses

NET PROFIT BRIDGE

§  Significant improvement in operating performance led by refining business resulting in higher net profit on Q-o-Q basis
§  1H FY13 decline in net profit was due to lower operating income. This was partly offset by higher other income and lower depreciation and tax charges

§  Exploration in mining lease area also being considered
§  However, no significant improvement in ground-level decision making
§  LNG prices remain at $10-11/MMBTU with market expected to remain tight
§  Higher resource price environment resulting in shortage in the rig and services market
